The Bodda Getta

Maybe to tell them first? :)

Let's hope....

did he say "yet" at the end of that comment?

You know... I'm a huge fan of pretty much all sports, and I always wonder what leaked stuff like the decommittment from Notre Dame rumors like this really do... I can think of several examples, but the most prevalent one has to do with the Atlanta Braves and Ken Griffey Jr. He was all set to request and get traded from the White Sox to the Braves near the end of his career and everyone close to him (family, friends, business associates) said that it was a done deal, and ESPN even reported it as a certainty, but as we all know, Griffey strongly denied it in a way that seemed, at least to me, like he was more mad that it leaked than it being completely false. I wonder if when stuff like this leaks out before the player gets to announce it himself it has any effect on their decision. Like a mindset of, "I was going to go there, but since the news was broken early, someone possibly associated with them cannot be trusted."
